Paypal and Ebay has split, hence Paypal is valuing more than $50 Billion.Most people feel Paypal should be worth much more than Ebay after the split but the worth is not really that much.Paypal is now officially an independent company, it shares open at $41.63, 8.3 percent on the first day of trading, making it above Friday’s last temporary closing price before it's public introduction.Shares trading at $41.63 ($50.8 billion value) makes Paypal outshine Ebay which is currently value at $34.5 billion, few minute after NASDAQ opening, Paypal now trades at $40.21, the shares are up to 4.74 percent even with the little market correction. Paypal has done more than 18 billion transactions and over one trillion dollars, Paypal currently has more than 169 million consumers in 200 countries of the world. The split will give Paypal the opportunity to raise more capital and own more companies, shareholders has shown more interest to own shares on Paypal and not Ebay.Paypal executives now have a chance to issue bonds without going through Ebay, more companies can also be bought using Paypal stock, this is going to be a new beginning for Paypal, Maybe this will make them approve my country (Nigeria) to receive money and use paypal full features. we pray so!What do you think? share your thought in the comment form below.

First Bank Nigeria has just announced a sealed partnership with PayPal that will enable customers use the payment service right from their Internet Banking portal.

This arrangement gives FirstBank the exclusive ability to allow her Internet banking customers open a PayPal account right from their FirstOnline account.

First Bank customers also get automatic verification of their PayPal accounts.

The motivation behind PayPals decision to integrate exclusively with First Bank is not far fetched considering 30% of the bank accounts in Nigeria are reported to be First Bank accounts.

First Bank ATMs dispensed 1.7 trillion Naira last year, more than the whole industry dispensed in 2011. First bank accounts for more than 40 per cent of active Interswitch cards.

They claim 90 per cent are active with 250 transactions per second projected to reach 100 per second and their mobile money offering, FirstMonie has 1.5m active users.

The Paypal partnership will also allow FirstBank card holders and businesses enjoy increased transaction limits, receive instant verifications, make online payments and transfer funds across the world in 193 countries and regions globally.

First Bank also announced that in the coming months, First Bank merchants will be able to receive payments via a First Bank PayPal wallet. Acceptance of First Bank Verve cards is also in the works.

Currently only Visa and Master cards are accepted on PayPal. For some perspective, there are currently 18 million Verve cards in Nigeria, of which First bank owns 35 percent of the share.

Previous Monthly BIS Activation Code which is BSM to 440 to Stop people from Using it.

So whenever you're to Subscribe to the BIS Package you've to Call
their Customer Care Service and Inform them, This actually Happened to
me for more than 3 Times, So they will Interview you and might even ask
for your BB Pin in Some Cases.

I lost my Naira mastercard(ATM) and decided to visit GT Bank for replacement,within few minute I was done and decided to use that opportunity to open internet banking for my account so that it can curb my frequent visit to the bank due to my daily online business transaction,immediately I was given a form to fill with just three blank space to fill which include name,account number and date.I quickly filled it and i was directed to another staff who collected the form from me and within few minute brought back an envelope containing my internet user id and password(sealed),I was amazed because some of my friends who did theirs some time ago said it took up to two days before they got theirs,i also register and got my token on the same day,token serve as a gadget used to get code while sending money,so that shows the bank has improve,which is very good,I ran home immediately to activated my account online and even send money same day to a client.isn't that awesome,that's GT BANk for you readers,so wouldn't you rather bank with them!
